The fourth title in the bestselling series from the brilliantly talented Liz Pichon.

Seeing Delia without her sunglasses on is a BIG shock, but that’s nothing compared with the surprise Dad has in store for me with his new found fitness regime.

He says he’s going to compete at my Sport’s Day.

Shame!

Meanwhile Derek, Norman and I keep practicing in DOGZOMBIES so we’re really ready for the school Talent Show.

ABOUT THE SERIES:

• Written in diary form
• Full of Tom’s doodles and pictures & his amazing sense of humour
• The Brilliant World of Tom Gates, was the winner of the Roald Dahl Funny Prize!

When life hands Tom Gates a shock like seeing his older sister Delia without her sunglasses, he knows things are about to get weird—especially when Dad announces he’s training for the parents’ race at Sports Day in embarrassingly bright cycling shorts. Meanwhile, Tom and his band DogZombies must prepare for the school talent show, juggling practice sessions, sibling rivalry, and classroom chaos. Between forging a late note, wrestling with teacher Mr Fullerman, and trying to stay calm while Delia’s hair goes green (yes, really), Tom’s “genius ideas” are tested on every front. Doodles, lists, comic strips and side-bars fill the pages as Tom navigates the absurd, the embarrassing, and the laugh-out-loud moments of one unforgettable term.
